Chapter 327: Your retribution is me

"What? You want to eat hotpot?" Su Yinhe dug her ear, "You just walked a bit, and now you’re telling me you’re hungry and want hotpot?"

"Yeah." Lin Murong nodded as if it were only natural.

"All this walking, and carrying all this stuff, it’s exhausted me."

"How can you even say that with a straight face?" Su Yinhe’s expression was complex.

"I... How can I be embarrassed? I’m quite proud actually," Lin Murong said with pride.

It was obvious, she saw right through him.

Su Yinhe bent down and rubbed her eyes.

Alright, alright, it’s really like raising a child.

"Hurry up, I’m really starving." Lin Murong rubbed her stomach and made a pressing down gesture, "Look, it’s all flattened."

Starving flat.

Su Yinhe: "..."

Su Yinhe had a feeling of having a mouth full of curses but unable to speak a single word.

Though powerless, Su Yinhe still made a Beef Butter Hotpot for him. It had been a while since she had it, and she kind of missed it too.

Of course, the preparation was done by Chi Yan.

The boss doesn’t do the manual labor.

Originally, Lin Murong was supposed to work as well, but he insisted on resting today after delivering things, claiming he was too tired.

Su Yinhe’s corners of her mouth twitched uncontrollably. Though speechless, she still agreed.

Then, the most outrageous thing happened, Lin Murong didn’t have to work, and he went to provoke Chi Yan.

"Wow, Brother Chi, you have to work. Galaxy pities me, she didn’t make me work."

Chi Yan: "..."

If it weren’t for Su Yinhe holding him back, Chi Yan’s kitchen knife would have flown off.

Between the kitchen knife and Lin Murong, one had to break.

Su Yinhe: "..."

It’s so tiring, can’t things be peaceful for once?

Tired, really tired.

"Do you have a death wish?" Su Yinhe slapped him, not on the face, on the back.

The slap was quite hard, but Lin Murong didn’t take it seriously.

"Ouch, what’s wrong with telling the truth? You do have a soft spot for me. I never expected Brother Chi to be so petty," Lin Murong was still pushing his luck, even now.

Su Yinhe: "..."

What a damn dog.

"If you keep blabbering, you won’t get your Beef Butter Hotpot," Su Yinhe said coldly.

"Stop, please stop, we’ve prepared so many ingredients. If I don’t eat, the two of you won’t be able to finish it all. Don’t let it go to waste," Lin Murong panicked when he heard this.

Besides Chi Yan, it’s only food that could manipulate him.

"Chi Yan and I both have storage, and if we can’t finish, we’ll just put it in storage. It won’t be wasted," Su Yinhe said with a slight smile.

"This... that... Suddenly, I don’t feel so tired anymore, I’ll go help," Lin Murong, afraid of losing the hotpot he was longing for, quickly went to help.

Him, an Advanced Superpower User, tired by such a small walk and some items? Impossible.

He was still capable.

He could do it.

Su Yinhe: "..."

There, she got him right where she wanted.

Su Yinhe sighed.

There was no other way, sometimes, threats were necessary.

The Beef Butter Hotpot was incredibly spicy and delicious.

While eating, Lin Murong kept sticking out his tongue as it was spicy, but he still couldn’t stop eating.

Hotpot, after all, had to be spicy to be delicious.

It’s not exciting if it’s not spicy.

Right now, Lin Murong felt very thrilled.

Su Yinhe also enjoyed her meal, though she didn’t expect Lin Murong to be so wild.

She just sweated a bit more, her mouth and eyes were a bit red.

Chi Yan has a light taste, and when he ate, he rinsed the food several times after cooking it, so by the time he ate it, there was hardly any spicy flavor left.

After finishing a meal of hotpot, he still looked elegant.

Su Yinhe, however, had disheveled hair and a red mouth, but everything else was okay.

Lin Murong was just standing there, holding his round belly and puffing air.

"Delicious, really delicious."

"As long as it’s delicious. Just remember to clean up," Su Yinhe said, holding a cup of lemon water and taking a couple of sips.

Lin Murong: "???"

"Huh?"

"What do you mean, huh? You ate and you’re not cleaning up?" Su Yinhe asked with a puzzled look.

"But... you both ate too. Why only make me clean up?" Lin Murong suddenly felt the hotpot wasn’t tasty anymore.

"But together, the two of us didn’t eat as much as you did," Su Yinhe said gently and softly.

"Then... then it’s your fault for eating less, not mine. Is it my fault that I can eat a lot?" Lin Murong felt wronged.

"That’s a secondary reason. The main reason is that I’m the boss. Do you really expect the boss to do the work?" Su Yinhe asked.

Lin Murong lowered his head and thought about it.

Galaxy is the boss. Right now, he’s living at Galaxy’s, eating Galaxy’s, drinking Galaxy’s, mooching off Galaxy every day... asking Galaxy to do chores...

He felt embarrassed.

Lin Murong shook his head.

"Right. And then, Brother Chi just prepared the dishes and has been busy for so long; he’s tired too. Plus, he doesn’t eat much spicy food, probably is still hungry. You don’t want to work on an empty stomach, so do you have the heart to make someone hungry do the work?" Su Yinhe asked with a gentle smile.

Lin Murong kept his head down, thinking, and felt somehow... that it wasn’t too good.

"Right, so it shouldn’t be a problem for you to clean up by yourself, right?"

It seemed like it wasn’t a problem.

Lin Murong shook his head.

"Yes, so go ahead and work. We both have other things to do. Thanks for your hard work." Su Yinhe clapped her hands and walked away with Chi Yan.

Leaving Lin Murong with the mess at the table.

Lin Murong rubbed his stomach and looked at the things on the table, feeling something strangely off.

Had he just...

Damn.

Been tricked by Galaxy.

He was tired too!

You two come back here!

But they had left, and coming back, especially to work, was even more unlikely.

So in the end, Lin Murong had no choice but to clean up by himself.

After cleaning up, he found Su Yinhe.

Su Yinhe was leisurely watching a drama.

"So this is the ’something important’ you mentioned?" Lin Murong said resentfully.

"Isn’t watching a drama important?" Su Yinhe looked innocent. "You really expect the boss to do the work?"

"You tricked me." Lin Murong’s resentment grew.

"I didn’t. Where did I trick you? Don’t make baseless accusations," Su Yinhe certainly wouldn’t admit it.

"You did trick me, you bullied me," Lin Murong covered his face, crying.

For every action, there is a reaction. Your comeuppance is me. Su Yinhe watched Lin Murong cry and suddenly thought of this saying.

It must be said, Lin Murong really seemed like her karma.

She didn’t know what she did wrong to end up with Lin Murong.

If she had committed a crime, please have the police arrest her instead of letting Lin Murong whimper in front of her.

A man whimpering is really terrifying.

Su Yinhe silently rubbed her arms, getting goosebumps.

"Okay, stop whimpering. There are no tears, it’s so fake." Every time he cried, no tears fell. Too fake.
